Harry Burns: Would you like to have dinner?... Just friends. Sally Albright: I thought you didn't believe men and women could be friends. Harry Burns: When did I say that? Sally Albright: On the ride to New York. Harry Burns: No, no, no, I never said that... Yes, that's right, they can't be friends. Unless both of them are involved with other people, then they can... This is an amendment to the earlier rule. If the two people are in relationships, the pressure of possible involvement is lifted... That doesn't work either, because what happens then is, the person you're involved with can't understand why you need to be friends with the person you're just friends with. Like it means something is missing from the relationship and why do you have to go outside to get it? And when you say "No, no, no it's not true, nothing is missing from the relationship," the person you're involved with then accuses you of being secretly attracted to the perso

Thousands of years ago, the first man discovered how to make fire. He was probably burned at the stake he had taught his brothers to light. He was considered an evildoer who had dealt with a demon mankind dreaded. But thereafter men had fire to keep them warm, to cook their food, to light their caves. He had left them a gift they had not conceived and he had lifted dardness off the earth. Centuries later, the first man invented the wheel.

That man, the unsubmissive and first, stands in the opening chapter of every legend mankind has recorded about its beginning. Prometheus was chained to a rock and torn by vultures—because he had stolen the fire of the gods. Adam was condemned to suffer—because he had eaten

I saw this movie last weekend and to say that it was good would be an understatement. It was great!!! A taut script with an ensemble cast keeps you glued to the screen for the entire duration of the film. Its all about 12 jury members sequestered in a jury room, to decide the fate of an 18 year old, from a poor,gritty and rough locality, accused of murdering his father. 11 of them vote for "Guilty" straight away while one of them, an Architect, votes "Not Guilty"...just because he's not sure of the facts, believes them to be circumstantial in nature and he wants them to, in his own words, "...talk about it,you know!!!". What follows is an attempt by the lone man to convince the others that there is room for "reasonable doubt". They begin to analyse the "facts"(some reluctant, some vehemently reluctant and some willingly). They realise there is indeed room for "reasonable doubt" and end up, one after another, revising their
